Key job responsibilities

1. Service Restoration: Deep-dive into and resolve technical issues via our in-house ticketing system. Utilize various data sources and logs to identify hardware or software faults within the Amazon Robotics environment, including addressing robotics performance issues, server issues affecting robot navigation, and robotic station malfunctions.
2. Collaboration: Collaborate with on-site robotics technicians and engineers, guiding their troubleshooting efforts, and partner with software development engineers who create the code that powers the robots, ensuring seamless integration and functionality across all systems.
3. High Severity Calls: When critical issues affecting the customer experience occur, you will be directly involved, participating in live troubleshooting sessions via conference bridge, coordinating resolution efforts, and escalating as needed. Utilizing various data sources such as logs, dashboards, and data dumps, you will identify problematic components within the robotics infrastructure and develop mitigation plans.
4. Process Improvement and Automation: Contribute to the continual improvement of our processes and procedures, participate in internal projects, and help make things better for our team and, in turn, our customers.
